Serenity

What positive emotion do you feel most often?

Serenity

SERENITY can be seen as the quality of being peaceful and calm. We might feel serene or content when we find ourselves in circumstances that feel right or easy. Think of a lazy Sunday morning spent with family or enjoying the calm and quiet of a peaceful walk through a garden.

According to Frederickson’s broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions, contentment encourages us to savor the present moment and reevaluate our priorities. This can help deepen our understanding of ourselves.
